Samurai sword techniques, sword etiquette, partner exercises, sparring,
and an introduction to aspects of the warrior code of Bushido. Experience
the excitement of combat while safely dressed in armor.
Myo Sim Kendo is a system of sword techniques,
combat sword fighting, sword drills, and mental discipline. Advanced
students may learn iai techniques - the drawing and handling of
a real sword. Students can expect a rigorous workout and an exciting
martial arts experience. Each student should provide their own boken

Myo Sim Kendo was also founded by Grand
Master Sung Hong, and is based on traditional Japanese sword fighting.
Myo Sim Kendo is distinguished from some of the more traditional
aspects of pure Japanese Kendo. For example, Myo Sim Kendo is more
combat-oriented and has less of the formality associated with beginning
and ending a technique.
